Does anyone know if it is possible to make a connection to a SQL Server with a mac running OS 10.3? And then do this tutorial with DW on a mac? I've got a database set up on a SQL Server by one of the IT guys and I've used DW a thousand times to create dynamic content with MS Access, but I'd really like to use the SQL database, and I have no idea how to make the connection to the database with a mac.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

I've not used DW on a Mac in a while, but you should be able to make the connection as per normal. Just set up your remote IIS machine as the test server, and use the connection string provided in the article (filling in with your details as appropriate). You should be able to test the connection as you're creating it.

This technote: www.macromedia.com/support/dreamweaver/ts/documents/dw_mac.htm might help if you need some pointers.
